I finished stitching the Bees and Trees French knot rug kit by Teresa Layman. It took me a total of 34.75 hours of stitching time, just over 5.25 hours per square inch for this tiny 3.25" x 2" rug. I love the way it turned out, but I don't think I will combine Colonial knots with French knots in my future rugs. I like both knots separately, but not together. The French knots are smaller and look cleaner in my opinion, especially when you have Colonial knots mixed in. You can see just a hint of the turned edges underneath. If I find it bothersome in its final location, I will color the edges of the turned fabric with a permanent marker of the closest matching color.
